Some ideas using “Pixie Wings”:

Blown hollow beads:

Blown hollow beads using Effetre 006 cleas as base glass. Rolled in frit. Tutorials and classes on how to blow hollow beads can be found from various artists.

Stud earrings:

Brief instruction:
Cut two pieces of glass (here Effetre white) with the same size from the rod. I use a 5 mm diameter rod and cut off 5-6 mm pieces. Hold the glass piece with a pincette or pliers and warm it in the flame.
Also warm the tip of the earstud (which you hold with a earstud-holding-tool) and dock it onto the warm glass. Then melt the glass until it is a small round blob. The stud should go 1-2 mm into the glass.
Now roll the hot glass blob into the frit blend and melt them in. Then shape it – ig with a lentil former or a really small marble mold, anneal it and put it into the annealing kiln or into annealing beads/bubbles.

Grab the hot glass at the tip with your pincette and twist it. Melt it again until it is round and next shape it ig with a lentil former or a really small marble mold, anneal it and put it into the annealing kiln or into annealing beads/bubbles.
